Remote real-time, motion capture-based neurorehabilitative therapy ordered by a physician or other qualified health care professional; treatment management services by a physician or other qualified health care professional, per calendar month

Remote real-time, motion capture-based neurorehabilitative therapy is a specialized treatment approach designed for individuals experiencing motor and sensory impairments due to various conditions that affect the central nervous system. This therapy is particularly beneficial for patients with disorders such as Parkinson’s disease, multiple sclerosis, stroke, or spinal cord injury. The therapy utilizes advanced technology, including markerless motion capture systems, to provide engaging and task-specific training that is both challenging and motivating for patients. These systems can operate remotely, allowing for flexibility in treatment delivery. One common type of system employs a motion capture device that interacts with a virtual reality environment, utilizing infrared cameras and depth sensors to detect and analyze the patient's body movements in three dimensions. This real-time feedback enables patients to receive immediate guidance on their performance. Another approach involves video gesture control software, which allows patients to interact with a computer-generated virtual environment through their body gestures. The therapeutic activities and exercises are tailored to the individual’s specific therapeutic goals, focusing on the affected limbs or the entire body. The therapy is structured around the patient's impairment measurements, which help in planning and adjusting the difficulty of the exercises to match their capabilities. Patients can select their therapeutic plans and follow the outlined steps, engaging in exercises designed for their rehabilitation. After completing a session, the performance data is uploaded to a web-based portal for further analysis. In addition to facilitating dynamic activities, the system also provides assessments of limb function, strength, and other relevant metrics, ensuring a comprehensive approach to neurorehabilitation.
